For the prompt this hour I want you to write a nature poem with a twist. I want you to write a poem about nature interacting with man made things. It could be about watching a beautiful eagle while standing in a strip mall parking lot, it could be about planting trees in a small city park, it could be about anything as long as it involves both the natural world and the un-natural one.
By Patricia Harris
Twenty roses twined
Through the garden gate,
Shading the toolshed elegantly.
Flowers riotously growing
Uncontrolled,
Even the lawn
Needs mowed.
Nature’s miracle is best
When it is overgrown.
I love this poem. I can see the tool shed and nature overtaking, overgrown. 🙂
Thanks!
